Stephen McNally, CMA, CPA, IMA Chair-Emeritus who leads the Committee.
Based at IMA's global headquarters in Montvale, N.J., the President and CEO is responsible for the global operations and overall delivery of IMA's Strategic Plan. The position reports to IMA's Global Chair on behalf of the IMA Global Board of Directors.
